1 Ehud wuo akyi no, Israelfoɔ no yɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so bio.
And the sones of Israel addiden to do yuel in the `siyt of the Lord, aftir the deeth of Aioth.
2 Enti, Awurade de wɔn hyɛɛ Kanaanhene Yabin a na ɔdi adeɛ wɔ Hasor no nsa. Na ɔsahene a ɔtua nʼakodɔm ano no din de Sisera a na ɔte Haroset-Hagoyim.
And the Lord bitook hem in to the hondis of Jabyn, kyng of Canaan, that regnede in Asor; and he hadde a duyk of his oost, Sisara bi name; and he dwellide in Aroseth of hethene men.
3 Na Sisera wɔ nnadeɛ nteaseɛnam aha nkron, na ɔde atirimuɔden hyɛɛ Israelfoɔ no so mfirinhyia aduonu. Afei Israelfoɔ no su frɛɛ Awurade pɛɛ mmoa.
And the sones of Israel crieden to the Lord; for he hadde nyn hundrid yrone charis, keruynge as sithis, and twenti yeer he oppresside hem greetli.
4 Debora a na ɔyɛ Lapidot yere ne odiyifoɔ baa na ɔbɛyɛɛ Israelfoɔ ɔtemmufoɔ.
Forsothe Delbora was a prophetesse, the wijf of Lapidoth, which Delbora demyde the puple in that tyme;
5 Na ɔtenaa Debora Abɛ Dua ase a ɛwɔ Rama ne Bet-El ntam wɔ Efraim bepɔ asase no so. Ɛhɔ na na Israelfoɔ no kɔ ma ɔdi wɔn nsɛm.
and sche sat vndur a palm tree, that was clepid bi her name, bitwixe Rama and Bethel, in the hil of Effraym; and the sones of Israel stieden to hir at ech dom.
6 Ɛda bi, ɔsoma ma wɔkɔfrɛɛ Abinoam babarima Barak a na ɔte Kedes wɔ Naftali asase so. Ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Sei na Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn hyɛ wo sɛ yɛ: Kɔboaboa akofoɔ ɔpedu ano firi Naftali ne Sebulon mmusuakuo mu wɔ Tabor bepɔ so hɔ.
And sche sente, and clepide Barach, the sone of Abynoen, of Cedes of Neptalym, and sche seide to hym, The Lord God of Israel comaundide to thee, Go thou, and lede an oost in to the hil of Thabor, and thou schalt take with thee ten thousande `of fiyteris of the sones of Neptalym and of the sones of Zabulon.
7 Mɛdaadaa Yabin akodɔm sahene Sisera ne ne nteaseɛnam ne akofoɔ akɔ Asubɔnten Kison ho. Ɛhɔ na mɛma woadi ne so nkonim.”
Sotheli Y schal brynge to thee, in the place of the stronde of Cison, Sisara, prince of `the oost of Jabyn, and his charis, and al the multitude; and Y schal bitake hem in thin hond.
8 Barak ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Sɛ wo ne me bɛkɔ dea, mɛkɔ!”
And Barach seide to hir, If thou comest with me, Y schal go; if thou nylt come with me, Y schal not go.
9 Debora buaa no sɛ, “Mate, me ne wo bɛkɔ, nanso worennya animuonyam biara wɔ dwumadie yi mu, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade nkonimdie wɔ Sisera so no bɛfiri ɔbaa nsam.” Enti, Debora ne Barak kɔɔ Kedes.
And sche seyde to hym, Sotheli Y schal go with thee; but in this tyme the victorie schal not be arettide to thee; for Sisara schal be bitakun in the hond of a womman. Therfor Delbora roos, and yede with Barach in to Cedes.
10 Kedes hɔ, Barak frɛfrɛɛ Sebulon abusuakuo ne Naftali abusuakuo mu nnipa nyinaa, na akofoɔ ɔpedu ne no kɔeɛ. Debora nso kaa wɔn ho kɔeɛ.
And whanne Zabulon and Neptalym weren clepid, he stiede with ten thousynde of fiyteris, and hadde Delbora in his felouschipe.
11 Na Kenini Heber atwe ne ho afiri Kenifoɔ a wɔyɛ Mose akonta Hobab asefoɔ no ho, akɔsi ne ntomadan wɔ dua kɛseɛ bi a ɛsi Saananim a ɛbɛn Kedes no ho.
Forsothe Aber of Cyneth hadde departid sum tyme fro othere Cyneys hise britheren, sones of Obab, `alie of Moises; and he hadde set forth tabernaclis `til to the valei, which is clepid Sennym, and was bisidis Cedes.
12 Ɛberɛ a wɔka kyerɛɛ Sisera sɛ Abinoam ba Barak aforo kɔ Tabor bepɔ so no,
And it was teld to Sisara, that Barach, sone of Abynoen, hadde stiede in to the hil of Thabor.
13 ɔboaboaa ne nnadeɛ nteaseɛnam aha nkron ano ne nʼakofoɔ nyinaa, na wɔtu tene firii Haroset-Hagoyim kɔɔ Asubɔnten Kison ho.
And he gaderide nyn hundrid yronne charis, keruynge as sithis, and al the oost fro Aroseth of hethene men to the stronde of Cison.
14 Afei, Debora ka kyerɛɛ Barak sɛ, “Yɛ ahoboa! Ɛnnɛ ne ɛda a Awurade de Sisera so nkonimdie bɛma wo, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade atu sa adi wʼanim.” Enti, Barak dii nʼakodɔm ɔpedu anim sianee Tabor bepɔ no kɔkoeɛ.
And Delbora seide to Barach, Rise thou, for this is the day, in which the Lord bitook Sisara in to thin hondis; lo! the Lord is thi ledere. And so Barach cam doun fro the hil of Thabor, and ten thousynde of fyyteris with hym.
15 Ɛberɛ a Barak to hyɛɛ wɔn so no, Awurade maa huboa bɔɔ Sisera, ne nteaseɛnamkafoɔ ne nʼakofoɔ no nyinaa. Ɛbaa saa no, Sisera huri firii ne teaseɛnam mu sii fam dwaneeɛ.
And the Lord made aferd Sisara, and alle `the charis of hym, and al the multitude, bi the scharpnesse of swerd, at the siyt of Barach, in so myche that Sisara lippide doun of the chare, and fledde `a foote.
16 Barak nteaseɛnam ne ɔtamfoɔ no akodɔm no ara kɔsii Haroset-Hagoyim, kunkumm Sisera akofoɔ no nyinaa. Anka wɔn mu baako mpo.
And Barach pursuede the charis fleynge and the oost `til to Aroseth of hethene men; and al the multitude of enemyes felde doun `til to deeth.
17 Sisera dwane kɔhyɛɛ Kenini Heber yere Yael ntomadan mu, ɛfiri sɛ, na Heber abusuafoɔ ne Hasorhene Yabin wɔ ayɔnkofa.
Sotheli Sisara fledde, and cam to the tente of Jahel, the wijf of Aber Cyney; forsothe pees waas bitwixe Jabyn, kyng of Asor, and bitwixe the hows of Aber Cyney.
18 Yael firii adi kɔhyiaa Sisera ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Owura, bra me ntomadan yi mu. Bra mu. Nsuro.” Enti, ɔkɔɔ ntomadan no mu maa ɔde nnasoɔ kataa ne so.
Therfor Jahel yede out in to the comyng of Sisara, and seide to hym, My lord, entre thou to me, entre thou to me; drede thou not. And he entride in to `the tabernacle of hir, and was hilid of hir with a mentil.
19 Sisera ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Mesrɛ wo, sukɔm de me enti ma me nsuo.” Enti ɔmaa no nufosuo sɛ ɔnnom, na ɔsane kataa ne so.
And he seide to hir, Y biseche, yyue `thou to me a litil of watir, for Y thirste greetli. And sche openyde a `botel of mylk, and yaf to hym to drynke, and hilide hym.
20 Sisera ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Gyina ntomadan no ano na sɛ obi bɛbisa wo sɛ obi wɔ ha a, ka sɛ dabi.”
And Sisara seide to hir, Stonde thou bifor the dore of the tabernacle, and whanne ony man cometh, and axith thee, and seith, Whether ony man is here? thou schalt answere, No man is here.
21 Nanso, ɔbrɛ enti, Sisera faa mu daeɛ. Yael, a ɔyɛ Heber yere, yɛɛ brɛoo kɔɔ ne so. Ɔde hamre ne pɛɛwa na ɛkɔeɛ. Ɔde pɛɛwa no sii ne moma so de hama no bɔɔ so, kɔsii sɛ ɛhwiree ne moma mu sii fam ma ɔwuiɛ.
And so Jahel, the wijf of Aber, took a nayl of the tabernacle, and sche took also an hamer; and sche entride pryueli, and puttide with silence the nail on the temple of his heed, and sche fastnede the nail smytun with the hamer in to the brayn, `til to the erthe; and he slepte, and diede to gidere, and failide, and was deed.
22 Ɛberɛ a Barak baa sɛ ɔrebɛhwehwɛ Sisera no, Yael pue bɛhyiaa no. Ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Bra na menkyerɛ wo ɔbarima a worehwehwɛ noɔ no.” Enti, ɔdii nʼakyi kɔɔ ntomadan no mu kɔhunuu Sisera sɛ wawu da hɔ a pɛɛwa si ne moma so.
And lo! Barach suede Sisara, `and cam; and Jahel yede out in to his comyng, and seide to hym, Come, and Y schal schewe to thee the man, whom thou sekist. And whanne he hadde entrid to hir, he siy Sisara liggynge deed, and a nail fastnede in to hise templis.
23 Ɛda no na Israel hunuu sɛ Onyankopɔn adi Kanaanhene Yabin so nkonim.
Therfor in that day God `made low Jabyn, the kyng of Canaan, bifor the sones of Israel;
24 Na ɛno akyi no, Israel nyaa ahoɔden tiaa ɔhene Yabin ara kɔsii sɛ akyire yi, wɔsɛee no.
whiche encresiden ech dai, and with strong hond oppressiden Jabyn, the kyng of Canaan, til thei diden hym awey.
